No, the folder stuff is IMAP. Telnet to your favorite imap
server (port 143) and you can try this
$ telnet imapserver.com 143

There's no need for users to have accounts, in fact I usually have
a "no login" account just for fetching mail - that way having the
password stolen or sniffed means that only my email has been
compromised, not the entire system.

I have used both the default imapd installed with Linux (UM, I think)
and cyrus imap. I find that cyrus is worth the extra hassle of
installing it because it has
- many authentication schemes (through sasl)
- fine grained access control that allows you to
easily create shared boxes (granting subscribe,
read, post or delete priveleges on a per user
basis) that can act as anything from a newsgroup
to a restricted, read-only message board.
- quotas on a per box or folder basis
- messages in a box are not melted into a single
huge "Berkeley" format file, making fetching a given
email faster and helping incremental tape backups
stay smaller (only the recent msgs are archived, not
the large mailbox file).
- pop3 daemon that uses the same message file formats
- the ability to deliver to any subfolder
That last point seems directly relevant to your case. A small perl
script could allow you fetch the mail from one or more locations,
parse the messages and store them in the correct box or even
subfolder.
I have used this to create a shared "devel" email address: mail
sent with "RFC" or "BUG" or ... is automatically stored in the correct
subfolder (using the cyrus delivery agent with the -m switch).

Subject: KDE2.0.1 and ossl
Date: 7 Dec 2000 05:49:48 GMT
Howdy Folks,
When I downloaded the latest stable KDE2.0.1, there was a note warning
against upgrading the ossl as it did not support the "hardest"
encryption. Well, when I got KDE2, it did have hard encryption builtin.
So, if I upgrade I loose the capability.
I think in the rush to get it on the net I accidently got the internal
German version instead of the export version. So, how do I keep hard
encryption? Is there a ssl patch available in the US? I know there
is a Fortify for netscape (windows) available from the aussies, but
I don't want to use either windows or netscape. I want 128 bit
encryption running with Konqueror.
Thanks,

Question form the linux newbie.
I'm having the problem when I run xmms (or any other mp3 player), my
mp3's skip when I do any relatively small operation. Example, maximize
a window, execute a find command while in my shell, start up any new
program. I assume this has to do with the DMA with my hard drive seeing
how I'm running Mandrake 7.2 on a PIII 500Mhz with 256MB of ram. Does
anyone know if this is really the problem or what the real problem is
and how to fix it. I assume that DMA isn't setup right but how do I
change it? Oh, and no one is logged in remotely either. Thanks for the
help in advance.

I don't know about Mandrake 7 specifically but you should find everything
under
/etc/rc.d/init.d/
There you'll see the scripts that do the starting and stopping. Now look
in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/
You'll find a bunch of soft links of the form SNNXXX and KNNXXX - the NN
are numbers and the XXX are names that match the names of the files the
links point to.
An SNNXXX file indicates that this service should Start upon entering the
runlevel (3 for the rc3.d dir) and the KNNXXX files stop the service. The
numbers determine the order in which things will occur.

I've successfully been able to boot from my RH 6.2 CD-ROM and get into rescue mode on
one computer
that contains DOS, NT 4.0 and Linux. On the other computer, which contains NT 4.0

luck. On the second computer, I've tried boot up parameters for CD-ROM as first

I do exactly this at home, and it works very well. (Using Redhat 6.1 and
the UW IMAP server.)

This is a function of the IMAP protocol and server, though there are a
few complications you should be aware of: Using the default setup,
(unix-style mailboxes) you can't have a folder that contains both
messages and other folders. You can do this using the maildir format,
but if you're going to do that, you should probably look into the Cyrus
IMAP server, especially if you're concerned about performance.

Well, they need passwords, mail spools, and a place to store their mail
folders (home directories). I'm not sure what you're definition of an
account is, but it seems pretty much impossible to have all those things
without a true account. What you can (and should) do is set the users'
shells to /bin/false or something equivalent so they can't log in.

Good, there have been exploits against holes in imapd in the past.
They've been fixed, but it's probably not the kind of thing you want to
run on an ultra-secure server.

fetchmail delivers mail to an MTA (like sendmail) by default. It is
possible to configure it to deliver directly to an MDA (like procmail),
which might be the best way to go in your case if you don't want to be
running a full MTA. You'll need some MDA either way you go. IIRC,
procmail is the default for Redhat, so it's probably best to just use
it.

imapd + fetchmail is by far the easiest way to go, and works quite well
too (in my experience). I doubt you'll find a better tool than fetchmail
for downloading mail, though UW imapd leaves a bit to be desired (in
terms of customizability and performance). It's unbelievably simple to
set up, though, so you should start with that and switch if you find it
doesn't meet your needs.

Well, my old machine has an amdk6 -233 and I get signal 11 when doing

My cpu doesn't match the serial number. I yanked out the memory one at

./configure looks in the /usr/include for the header file.

You may be likely to, but you won't. IDE controllers have a queue

That's what you need. Even then you will get at most a 30% speedup

That's between you and RH 6.2. I presume it comes with a setup tool!
If you want to do it by hand, edit /etc/HOSTNAME and /etc/hosts. Then
run hostname `cat /etc/HOSTNAME`. And if RH don't use that file, use
whatever one they do use ... something under /etc/sysconfig/ probably.

That's all you have to do. Mind you, RH gets this wrong by default as
far as I have seen, adding them as aliases for localhost and leaving
them that way when you later add a NIC.
> I need to set it for sendmail?
In sendmail's configuration file. But if the system hostname and
domainname is setup correctly, it won't be necessary. So what does
"hostname -f" tell you?
Is sendmail RUNNING? Type "pstree" and look.

It can do other things, depending on the nature of the incompatibility.
Most every executable I compile with gcc 2.8.1 won't run when
moved to RH 7. Even simple things. It just sits there. that's aside
from libc5/libc6 issues. gcc 2.9.5 is more compatible, but it's easy

And the reverse (of course). It's not purely a linking issue, except
insamuch as you have to link to some libraries to see the effect.
